The annoying, high pitch buzz went off again. I spent the night with my friend Brett and this alarm is not as rude of an awakening as rolling over and realizing I was naked with him. I use him as a booty call when I'm desperately horny and when I need free drinks and food.
I search for my bra as I try to avoid stubbing my toe on his furniture. I tip top around the mess we made and bent down to look under his bed. I notice a few condom wrappers, dust, and what looked like an accounting book. Still no bra.
I didn't want to wake him because awkward conversation would ensue and he'd be all cocky about how he "got" me again. I knew that I was already going to be late for my big meeting at work; my fault for sleeping through the alarm. I was racking my brain for an excuse I could make, but today was the big day I've been wait for to present in front of the board of directors at our publishing company. I needed to go home and take a proper shower, but I opted to use Brett's sink so I would give myself a chance at making it on time.
I don't have huge boobs, but being braless and having my nipples poke through the silk of last nights clothing distracted people from the wrinkles, or so I keep telling myself. I did my make up in the back of the uber that I couldn't afford, but I also couldn't afford to be late waiting for the subway or buses. I crunched on some breathe mints the uber driver had and combed my hair with my fingers as I thought about how I really needed to stop drinking and staying out on weeknights. I really need to get my life together at some point.
I hate living in outside of Manhattan because it was so difficult to get into the city during rush hour. I need to make friends with or start sleeping with guys that lived downtown rather than Brett's studio.
I'm braless, smelling like semen, probably wearing a bruise somewhere from sex with Brett last night in addition to the same clothes from yesterday. My co-worker immediately notices and I give her the "don't start" look. I'm self conscious that my panties would show or that my scent of day old + sex panties would waft around the office. I could feel eyes on me as I walked by and I was too self-conscious about my nipples to have a conversation with anyone. I ran to the first aid kit to try and find band-aids to put over my nipples, but the box was empty. Who in the hell would put the empty box back in the wall mounted kit if it was empty. Well I followed right along because I didn't know who to notify and honestly I didn't care. I put the box back, clipped the clips closed and ran to my desk.
I grabbed my laptop and walked to the meeting. I took a few deep breaths, tried to strike a power pose, and waited for the room to quite down. I go to bluetooth into the projector and realized that my computer is at 6% battery. Great! I'll just wing this. I crush the presentation without a projector and slides. I'm feeling really accomplished. I had a good day at work yesterday, celebrated with drinks (for free), had a guy friend go down on me, and crushed my presentation today all while being under prepared and braless. I'm just that good!
The feeling that I was able to pull the wool over everyones eyes and just use my talent to wing it is amazing. Well anyway, hopefully I'll get that promotion soon that I've been passed up for in the last two cycles. I could really use the money. I needed to catch up on bills, and I wanted a break from dating guys just for the food. For once I just want to not put in any effort online with dating apps just to pretend to be interested in some random guys frisbee club so I could eat something more than a $12 salad. I was literally meeting different guys for coffee, lunch, and dinner just to make it in NYC.
I sped off to my second job bartending immediately after I finished work. I wanted to go home and change, but it's across the bridge and I wouldn't make it in time. I usually pack a bag, but you know how my morning went. I worked up a sweat walking there and I could tell my deodorant is not doing what it advertised it would do. I had this clean musk about me and I was sweating a little. Not a great look.
I say my hellos, clock in with my manager, and then bee-line to the bathroom. Again I use the sink to freshen up. I found a sleeve of napkins that I used to fan and air dry myself and wipe up what mess I could. I felt better, but was still a little self conscious.
I start my shift and flirt a little extra hard trying to earn extra tips. I kept saying to myself that the nipple no bra thing is a good thing... nips for tips, nips for tips, nips for tips... I kept repeating to myself in my head. I notice Phil, a regular that I don't know much about other than he's mid 40'sish, a little grey, dad bod, but handsome and really well put together. He always comes in dressed business casual, has a deep voice, and a fatherly sense about him.
"Hey, Phil! The usual?" I asked trying to make eye contact. He never looks at me in the eye. He's always reading or on his phone. His large hands make his phone look small. I've always noticed his hands and forearms. They were veiny, well defined, humongous, and hairy. I know it sounds weird, but on him, hairy hands just seemed so... I don't know... masculine.
I've definitely thought about him while toying with my vibrator at home. I figured he'd be really good and strong fingering me. I've visualized his big hands on my small, slender figure, but today he did make eye contact. I flirt with him every chance I get, but he's always been so mysterious. I didn't care since he was a really good tipper.
I purposefully bent down to let him see down my shirt. I bent over to reach the "ice" or whatever right in front of him. I shimmy my hips and wiggle my waist to get my shirt to come up a little and show my toned tummy off as I reached for whatever when I'm right in front of him. He usually doesn't even respond, but today he definitely did. His eyes were glued to me. I made sure to smile and wink a few times. Not enough to be creepy, but definitely send the message that I liked him for more than just his money.
"Careful, you're going to break a lot of hearts like this." He said as he looked me up and down.
I approached him while hugging a tray in front of my chest just to set it aside on my hip when I got closer. Almost as if I was revealing my chest to him.
"That's the point, Phil! The more they're heart broken, the more they drink." I coyly responded.
We traded a few more light jabs before I went for the kill. "You know, I see you hear all the time, but this is the first time we've ever really talked. You shy or just don't like me?"
"I figured you have enough guys to talk to, I don't want to add to the list. Besides, if it were up to me, you're not the type of girl I would spend much time talking to."
"Hey! I know we're not in the same league, but you don't have to be so hurtful." I quickly retorted with just enough attitude to show I'm a little offended.
